Claims of "this is not a troll" are usually directly proportional
to the subsequent material being a troll.

I'd think that new-time Slackware users would have more info about
distro variations. Up until last year, I hadn't touched a RedHat
derivative in six years. I still struggle with the many screwy
oddities of RedHat. I'm sure others in this newsgroup are in a
similar situation.

Not if we don't use the other distros!

One needs to be looking to be able to spot anything. And, for better
or for worse, RH is currently the de facto standard in linux. So
RH users should be able to spot variations in Slackware. (Fat chance
of that, though!)

I would say that RedHat newbies have inaccurate expectations from
Slackware old-timers. In general, things work more or less the
same between distros--it's all linux, after all. But the stylistic
differences are significant enough that asking about, say, compiling
a kernel in RH in a Slackware newsgroup is like a hosehead American
trying to watch a movie with really strong Irish accents--much
understanding is lost, even though the American and the Irish both
speak (more or less) the same language.

You mis-spelled 'defecto'.

Whereas anything written by you simply is a troll.

You're just saying that to be contrary. You are an idiot and you
are asked once again to stop posting.

I could ask you the same question:

Was this really needed?

Did you wish to discuss the other points I brought up in my post, or did you
just want to complain about shoddy treatment some more? I can predict that
the latter will bring additional shoddy treatment.

Tell you what, I'll cut you a deal: you stick to technical topics relating
to Slackware, and I'll stop taunting you. (Then again, if you don't I'll
probably stop taunting you for other reasons.)

Relax man, take it easy. I didn't read your post correctly first time, must
have been all the beer I had after supper maybe. It happens.

You are acting like a child.

I am sorry, and screw RH and SuSE.

You read alot into things through sexuality/relationship point of view.

Is this an indication of unsatisfied supressed feelings or passions?

Do you mean "you" as in me, or "you" as in general. I personally was
making a joke.

> Is this an indication of unsatisfied supressed feelings or passions?

Actually it's a song, a song I happen to like. I like the statement
that you (general) doesn't own me, no one but me has control over me
and just becase I might flirt, kiss or whatever doesn't mean that I am
bound to that person unless /I/ agree to be.
Even Faux_Pseudo knows how lucky he is. :-)
